Search Advocate Foundations Workshop Series

You must complete all sessions in the Search Advocate Foundations workshop series in sequence to become a search advocate. The series is typically offered at least once a month, and the system is set up to register participants for all four sessions in the same cohort.  If you are unable to complete the series within one cohort date series, please contact Anne Gillies, Search Advocate Program Director (anne.gillies@oregonstate.edu) for assistance.  Registration priority will be given to those who can complete all four sessions as part of the same cohort.
